This seed has expanded since then and had become one of the most well-known and used language all over the world. C++ is built for pretty much everything except the web. Primarily it is used for game development and embedded programming. C++ is successfully used by Evernote, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Opera, NASA, Facebook, etc.

Advantages :

  • C++ also has the features like polymorphism, data encapsulation etc.
  • We can also run C programs in C++.
  • Portable
  • Low-level language while also being easier to learn.
  • Has unions and structures
  • Gives the user control over the memory

  • Scalability

Disadvantages :

  • Control over the memory makes the code prone to errors.
  • Memory leakage

Companies using JavaScript are Microsoft, Paypal, Netflix, Groupon, Uber, Facebook, Google, etc.
 

Advantages :

  • Very fast as it runs on the web browser
  • JIT(just-in-time) compilation allows to directly run code
  • Easy to learn
  • Large community base
  • Inter-operable
  • Versatile
  • Lots of libraries

Disadvantages :

  • Issues with client-side security
  • Code is visible to everyone
  • Small error can take down the whole website
  • Debugging is not easy
  • The continuous conversions of numbers to an integer increase the time needed to run the script and reduce its speed.
